Zvartnots Dance Ensemble was founded on December 9, 1989 by 18 year old Vartan Aghajanyan. Our mission is to help young Armenians learn their culture through dance. Aside from the dancers of Zvartnots, over 200 other students participate at The Armenian Dance Center under choreographers Vartan and Armine Aghajanyan. Since it is difficult for the younger generation to distinguish between what is and what is not part of the Armenian culture, Zvartnots Dance Ensemble is well known as the only group in Los Angeles whose program consists solely of Armenian Dances. After 18 years of hard work and dedication, by the students and even more by the choreographers, the participants of The Armenian Dance Center hope to travel to many different countries all over the world and share the culture and heritage of their ancestry.
